Just made these...Very yummy.
They are so easy to make and definately satisfy any cake cravings. I think I could have done with leaving them in the oven for a couple more minutes as they were really light and airy at the top but a bit too dense at the bottom which left a very slight eggy taste.
Will deffo be making these again and can't wait to try the chocolate ones next time!!!
The difficult part now is stopping at one......

I agree they keep calling me, thankfully only had 2 so far lol.
I took mine out of the oven after 10 mins (and I have a fan assisted oven), took one look and thought they don't look right, so put them back in for another 3-4 minutes, they came out a lot browner, but actually looked really cooked and I didn't taste any egg, just tasted like really big profiteroles...too nice lol xx

One day at a time, one step at a time
Hi Lily I am so behind after sulking all weekend. Sorry sweetie
Flicked through your diary and as always amazing meals so I just had to get a large glass of water as was drooling :8855:
this is an interesting comment. I am not a sausage lover only Richmond sausages and all i've tried i don't like so would like to try these.
How do I know which ones they are?
Hope all is well and will try and keep up again xxxxxxx

Not strange at all- my mum is *exactly* the same- hates sausages, except Richmond
It's not so weird now i know that there are 2 of you like that

3 of us, even when I started on SW and began eating the Morrisons 60% fat free Cumberland, I didn't like them, but persevered and now I can honestly say I don't think I could eat any others now and my grill up on a Tuesday night wouldn't be the same without them lol xx
Now onto my confession, I have been feeling funny since Friday, couldn't decide what I wanted to eat, if anything, couldn't be bothered with anything, did push myself to do exercise but didn't enjoy it at all...didn't know what was wrong with me, but I do now...withdrawal that was what was wrong...over the last 7 months, I have given up everything, other than the odd blip, I have stuck well and truly to plan...but today I blew it, big time, pizza, fried chicken, full fat coleslaw and to top it all large fries and Pepsi...not even diet Pepsi...but I don't feel one bit guilty, I had it, got it out of my system now, will most likely gain a ton this week, but I have put it behind me now, got 2 days to repair some of the damage, but I am sure I will gain this week and again c'est la vie. Onwards and downwards from here and onto my next half stone award xx

Tea sounds lovely
It might be just what you needed to kickstart a big loss next week. Sometimes it works that way.
Absolutely hun, that's why I am ok with it, I have been too good I think, following it all and watching my 2 daughters stuff their faces and still lose more than me...admittedly even with all my exercise they are still more active, but not the point...I can usually resist anything, but this has been brewing for a while so I gave in with very little effort and decided to take whatever comes my way lol xx

These are the pictures of the outside view and inside view of the wedding invited I have just made for my daughters wedding...I have obviously deleted some personal details from the inside for them to go on here, but my daughter is very happy with them and has put the same decorations on her wedding cake boxes...she is a massive Disney fan hence the Minnie and Mickey decal inside xx

ohhh you rebel
No, really, good on you- we all need a blow out once in a while- ive not had a big blowout in a while....not quite ready yet- the odd blip, yeah...but im kinda scared to have a full on thing
maybe when i get my 3 stone shiny, i dunno.... kinda disappointed with how this month is going so far, so feeling a bit *blah*
might be due on too- just to rub salt in the wound.
Anyhoo- no exercise for me- only 15 minutes of walking- 2 hours left to target- so im going to walk to work and back (30 mins) and try to do at least an hour on top of that- wii fit and just dance me finks. and cleaning counts as exercise, right? i want it to lol
right- you take it easy hun- have an awesome day tomorrow

Hey hun, I didn't plan my blow out, started off really well this morning and then it all went down hill lol...I just hope that having this big blip will make me get back onto it properly and hopefully kick start some bigger losses again.
I exercised yesterday and a little today but not as much as normal, so tomorrow is a new day, a new week and I am back onto it big time...I don't feel sick or anything after my blow out but i do feel yuk ...not liking the taste in my mouth, keep brushing my teeth and tongue and it's still there...too much fat me thinks lol ...oh well off to brush and gargle this time
Yeah cleaning counts as long as it's streuous and makes you sweat and makes your heart pump, so di your cleaning with a lot more gusto and add the body magic up lol (I am actually serious)
cya soon hun xx
HAHAHA just read your post properly, been a good few years since I was last called a rebel, I love it lol xx

This is a documentary I watched on BBC some time ago, I thought it had been deleted from the net, but just found it again,it comes in 5 parts I believe but it's well worth watching, lots of handy tips and more importantly, showed my husband and son inlaws just how stupid they were, filling themselves full of high fat rubbish on a daily basis and what that could do to them, stopped them laughing about how much they could eat without putting on weight, when they realised they could all potentially be ticking bombs xx

Nice invites Lily. You're very clever
I watched that documentary when it was on tv. Well I did if it's the one with the full meal and the soup to show that soup keeps you fuller for longer. I might watch it again.
Actually that could explain why you wanted to binge cos I don't know if it was that doc or another one who explained about aspartame in diet foods and drinks and how your body releases insulin when you have them for the sugar but they don't contain sugar so your body isn't satisfied til you feed the insulin. Maybe the sweetener in the 1 syn cupcakes set you off.
How's today going food wise?

Yes Tilly I think you are right I banned asparatin (sp) from this house about 6 months + ago after reading something which made my hair curl. I'm not saying its not safe etc but there were so many iffy things about it and one of them being the way it made you want to eat more etc etc. Alot of NAS squashes contain it too in fact most of them do. If I have squash I buy the high juice ones and just have a glass a day and enjoy it. Otherwise I buy sparkling water and add ie a slice of lemon or lime, or just drink water. It was after reading/watching about it that I converted

OMG Tilly you are so damn clever, I use sweeteners in my coffee and tea that don't contain aspartame (buy them in Lidl's, my daughter in law told me about them when I was first diagnosed with diabetes) and it never even crossed my mind about it being in the sweetener my daughter buys to make her cakes and goodies with
That is the documentary with the soup, hence the reason now that I continue to have soup most days for lunch, although I was eating soup daily before,but that just enforced my reasons to continue.
Thank you ladies, I enjoy making the cards and invites, gives me something to do rather than sitting here idle, and I love the fact that I can tailor them to fit the persons own style...my daughter is definitely a minimalist, hence the simple front, but she's also a huge Disney fan, hence the inside and she loves photos and is very family orientated, hence the back...she wants to put a small stencil on the back something very personal and will do that today.
Yesterday she spent the day decorating her cake boxes in the same style and pattern as the invites, you wouldn't believe she still has a year to go before the wedding lol, I am an organised person but even i'm not that organised lol
Anyway, I am off to wander, have a great day ladies and I will catch you later and will put up my menu for today, had a very late start due to an upset tummy all night, can't think what gave me that
cya laters xx
